This book presents an introduction to viscoelasticity; in
particular, to the theories of dilute polymer solutions and dilute
suspensions of rigid particles in viscous and incompressible
fluids. These theories are important, not just because they apply
to practical problems of industrial interest, but because they form
a solid theoretical base upon which mathematical techniques can be
built, from which more complex theories can be constructed, to
better mimic material behaviour. The emphasis is not on the
voluminous current topical research, but on the necessary tools to
understand viscoelasticity at a first year graduate level. The main
aim is to provide a still compact book, sufficient at the level of
first year graduate course for those who wish to understand
viscoelasticity and to embark in modeling of viscoelastic
multiphase fluids. To this end, a new chapter on Dissipative
Particle Dynamics (DPD) was introduced which is relevant to model
complex-structured fluids. All the basic ideas in DPD are reviewed,
with some sample problems to illustrate the methodology.
